life’s not a paragraph

as i said in the previous post, the holidays have snuck up on me this year so i was a little shocked when black friday rolled around and i remembered that i have yet to buy one single christmas gift. not one. opps.

cue the christmas stress. i was wracking my brain for ideas. trying to figure out the list of people that i need to buy for. this was my thought process: should i attempt to make things? should i just buy things? but i’m kind of broke so i should make something. but what should i make? do i have enough time to make things?… etc. i only produced one idea and it was for my boyfriend’s gift, which i had thought of a while ago. so really all my thinking went nowhere. awesome.

but then i had an epiphany while walking down the street with my roommate rachel! i am going to a foreign country right after christmas… people love things from foreign lands (well at least i do). and things will be cheaper there and everything will be handmade. perfect! everyone will be happy! christmas comes around and everyone will be receiving a I.O.U.  a christmas present from el salvador note.

now that will be an excellent way to spend my free time in el salvador and it will give me a great excuse to explore all the shops! woo!
